Album The Undertones. Teenage Kicks Lyrics. A teenage dream's so hard to beat Every time she walks down the street Another girl in the neighbourhood Wish she was mine, she looks so good. I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight Get teenage kicks right through the night. I'm gonna call her on the telephone Have her over cos I'm all alone I need excitement, oh I need it bad And it's the best I've ever had.

The Undertones is the 1979 debut album by The Undertones. The album was recorded at Eden Studios in Acton, West London in January 1979 and was released on 13 May that year. The original release included just one single release: "Jimmy Jimmy" and an album version of "Here Comes The Summer", which was never released as a single. A re-released version of the album (housed in an alternate sleeve), was issued in October 1979.

Teenage Kicks" was the debut single for Northern Irish punk rock/new wave band The Undertones. Written in the summer of 1977 by the band's principal songwriter, John O'Neill, the song was recorded on 15 June 1978 and initially released that September upon independent Belfast record label Good Vibrations, before the band-at the time unobligated to any record label-signed to Sire Records on 2 October 1978.

Album: Teenage Kicks - Single, 1978. John Peel's favourite ever song and not hard to understand why. Timeless teenage frustration in 2 and a half minutes of raucous pop punk heaven.

Are teenage dreams so hard to beat? Everytime she walks down the street Another girl in the neighbourhood Wish she was mine, she looks so good. I'm gonna call her on the telephone Have her over 'cause I'm all alone I need excitement, oh, I need it bad And it's the best I've ever had. I wanna hold her, wanna hold her tight Get teenage kicks right through the night, all right.

Teenage Kicks is a brilliant and essential punk EP, introducing a band as important as the Buzzcocks, Clash and Sex Pistols, but who never received the widespread acclaim. Feargal Sharkey is the perfect singer - full of pain and neuroses. John and Damien O’Neill patch together an impenetrable wall of sound. The Undertones formed in Derry, Northern Ireland, in 1975. Belfast record shop owner Terry Hooley released this EP on his own label in September 1978. The EP was a major means of expression for the punk-new wave movement where the emphasis was on such brevity that a single would seem like a financial gyp. The EP allowed people a greater insight into a band’s musical mission.
